From I Believe (2023). I Believe is the tenth studio album by American contemporary Christian musician Phil Wickham, released on 18 August 2023 by Fair Trade Services. No source we found ties a guitar or amp to this recording, so a Fender Player Telecaster through a Morgan AC20 Deluxe, the rig we use for Phil Wickham's other songs from I Believe, stands in. Set the amp to a light crunch and use the neck pickup. Standard tuning.

Settings for this sound: Gain 3, Bass 5, Mid 6, Treble 6.5, Presence 6, Volume 5. Each value is on the standard 0–10 amp scale; match them on your amp first, then nudge to taste. ToneMirror can translate these positions for whatever amp you actually own.
Can I play "The Jesus Way" without the original gear?
Yes. ToneMirror takes the settings above and adapts it to your guitar, amp, and pedals - so you can chase the "The Jesus Way" tone on a Katana, a Helix, a tube combo, or anything else. The translation accounts for EQ curve, gain structure, and pickup type so the result actually sounds like the record, not just the same knob numbers on different gear.
